[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] frottage:
I just sent my handset back with Duttys ROM on it

I dont think Orange are organised enough to bother chasing you up about it

It would only get picked up when they get the phone back to engineering - I doubt they even turn the phones on - they just flash them with their ROM as a first step. Even if it did get discovered - im sure they arent sophisticated enough to trace it back to you - and even if they did trace it back - what are they going to do then ?? send it back to you ??
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Fallen Spartan:
Is all well saying this, but I do know someone who sent their phone back with an earlier dutty rom version and they refused to fix it as he had broken warranty.

My honest advice is don't take chances. Would you take the same risks with your house or car? Bare in mind the cost of the HD. Its straight forward to revert back to stock roms anyhow. Takes less than 10 mins for reassurance
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Radeon123:
When I had the Orange Tytn 2, I had 3 replacements from Orange and when I sent the faulty phones back, I left the custom ROM installed with the Hard SPL on it, Orange never complained.

I would just send it back as is.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Fallen Spartan:
I'm just highlighting the risks so he can make an informed decision knowing both sides.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] frottage:
I appreciate your comment and im quite amazed - I wonder did your friend TELL them in advance that he had a custom Rom ?

I'm only saying that because Ive never heard of anyone having this problem in the past - in fact I sent back my old S710 at least 3 times under warranty and they never said a word plus now my touch HD
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Fallen Spartan:
I don't believe he would have been stupid enough to mention this, but to be honest I never asked him that.

IMO operators including Orange are aware of this site and realise they can't live without it. Maybe he was just unlucky. I've never had to return my device and if I ever had to, for the time it takes, I'd probably restore stock rom, but thats just me.

Hi,

I am having issues with my HTC Diamond after reseting my handset this morning i was presented with the bootloader screen with no apparant operating system.

I have managed to install a rom and went through the setup screens but upon completion the phone reboots and i am back to the boot loader.

My phone has SPL 1.34.Hard and was running the last dutty rom for about 2-3 months.

Anyone have any ideas on what i can do short of ring up my insurance and telling them i lost it haha
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] stewis:
After some reading of a hundred million threads i came across the solution which i will share here incase anyone has my problem.

Hold down volume up + center button and reset (with your third hand lol). The screen then goes gray and preform a restore.

I really hope this helps someone else in that finds there way into my situation :D
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] stewis:
Seems to bve getting beyond a joke now lol. the Phone boots up and then loads into WinMo. After reseting the device it goes straight into the boot loader again and stays there.

I have tried both options on the restore screen including the formatting of the NAND memory.

[edit] Ran the process again and it worked the second time reboots into the OS now :D[/edit]

Hi, this question might sound a bit ridiculous, but how do you flash (or create) a ROM for the KS20 with WM5.0 in it?

I seem to find WM5 slightly faster than WM6. :D

[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] jayt2008:
Hey all,

I've been looking for a LONG time now for a program that will let me send/recieve my emails on my touch pro at something like 1 minute or so instead of the 5 minutes default. Now i found this thread in another forum here at XDA.. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=332960 ...

This program does everything i want it to but only when the phone is awake.. when its in standby mode (the screen turned off) the program doesnt run and therefore doesnt receive my emails.. Has anyone else used this program and if so do you have a fix for this? or able to fix it?

Any help would be much appreciated!!

Thank you very much.

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Deleted member 237051:
got a strange problem with my Touch Diamond since last weekend. The battery was drained so i recharged it as usual. But when i try to switch it on only the backlight lights up, but nothing is visible in the screen. No "Touch Diamond", no ROM info etc even when i try to get in the bootloader (SPL, by pressing down the volume button) it won't show any messages on the screen.

On the outside it doesn't have any notacable damages. The strange thing is that when switched off the 'enter' key pulsates in an upward motion. When powered up, all keys pulsate and dim over a certain period of time (approx 1 minute)

can't find anything on the net what could explain this problem and how to solve it.

anyone got a clue what's going on here ?

Regards,

i was wondering anyone could help me. when i first got my htc HD, the messaging keyboard rotate automatic. somehow when i reinstall the original-rom due for some reason, the auto rotate was gone. anyone could help me get back the original setting? :(
[Touch HD General] dom_mitchell1:
Did you buy the phone new? As far as I know, the official HTC ROM never had screen rotation in it for the keyboard.

There are loads of different programmes you can install to allow you to rotate the keyboard:

Gyrator

Flipit

to name but two...
[Touch HD General] leobox1:
no rotation for stock !
[Touch HD General] stwelong:
weird or maybe my memory was too bad. anyway i have found a screen rotating soft which was quite good compare to the rest i have tried.

[G1 Android Development] setspeed:
Hi, I've started this thread to get some advice from the members who are experienced in modding their phones.

As lots of G1 owners did, I greedily installed app after app until i was running low on space and ended up getting rid of a load. By this time my phone was running slowly anyway.

After recently playing with JF 1.5 then going to the official cupcake release, i have now only installed 24 apps and have 60mb free internal memory - so plenty of space for the browser/maps/youtube caches to grow.

My problem is understanding exactly how the system works though. How can I force each app to continue running in the background until I go back to it?

When first opening an app it takes anything from 0.5sec (dialer) to 17sec (maps) to go from the initial blank screen to actually drawing the app interface on the screen. This is fine when you first use an app, and if you go home then back to the app this is pretty much instant because the app is still running.

My problem however is the small number of apps the system allows to keep running before closing them, it only seems to be about 4 or so, and when you reopen an app you used a little while ago then you have to go through the painfully slow initial waiting while the app interface is drawn on the screen.

My questions really then are:

1. How many apps does the system keep running, and can this be increased? If so, then how & at what price?

2. Is there a way to force the system to always keep certain apps running and not close them (apps I use repeatedly througout the day, such as gmail, chompsms, browser)? I want the instant snappiness all the time for these apps.

3. Can I force the system to close other memory/processor hog apps as soon as I finish using them (maps, youtube, gallery)?

4. Will moving my apps and dalvik cache to a really fast class 8 microsd card help the speed of my phone in any way? Or is this just a way to increase free space on my phone memory?

Thanks in advance for any answers/advice/help! :)
[G1 Android Development] borodin1:
17 sec for map? Something is wrong. I just opened my map and it took 2 sec to open up the map, another 1 sec to get my rough location. I was inside so I can't comment on getting exact GPS location but, if I had to guess, usually it's about 4-5 sec to lock onto that.

Now onto your question: Android manages it's own memory and there's no way of telling it how to manage it. You can do couple of things:

1) Get an "Open Overclocker" and increase the speed of you CPU to 384/528Mhz from stock 284/384Mhz

2) Get "Task Manager for root users" which will let you shut down programs that you don't use.

3) Reduce the number of widgets you have installed. In my experience, all of the news widgets run in the background even if you don't have them on your screen.

4) Clear you caches regularly (once a day). Very important.

5) Reboot your phone once a day.

Good luck.
[G1 Android Development] setspeed:
I've just opened my map again after rebooting the phone (and ensuring wifi is switched on, so there's no delay in downloading data for the map) and it took 7sec from hitting the icon until i had a map drawn on my screen. So perhaps the 17 sec was a one off. Even still, it feels painfully slow.

I will look into rooting my phone, and the over clocking and the TaskManager.

The only widgets i have installed are the google search bar, and a playlist.

Any thoughts on moving my apps/dalvik cache to a fast sd card? I think i read somewhere that a class 6 sd card is about the same speed as the internal memory in the G1, so would a class 8 card be even faster than this with regard to loading apps up?

Thanks for your advice so far!
[G1 Android Development] borodin1:
There are multiple discussions about that and at this point it sounds like it does not matter where you caches are in terms of speed. Don't ask me why, I'm not that tech savy. Most people move caches to save space and to avoid clearing them every day. The beauty of this is that you can try it out and go back if you think it's not for you.

Also... look into what apps do you have on your phone, some of them may bog down system significantly. I know for sure that Phonebook from VoxMobile will, there are few others, can't remember which though, look for the thread about it from couple of months ago.

Good luck.
[G1 Android Development] setspeed:
Thanks borodin1!
[G1 Android Development] billc.cn:
You do realize, unless the section of the map is cached, it has to be downloaded over your wireless connection right? (and cell networks has a very long latency.)

As to your questions 1-3, all running tasks are managed by the android system and non-active ones are terminated if memory is required by an active program. You cannot control this, but you can kill running apps if you want.

Also due to the slow nature of the terrible dalvik VM, you can't get much performance improvement by moving the dalvik-cache. I suppose you can get some boost by increasing the CPU speed, but the battery life will be much shorter.
[G1 Android Development] borodin1:
Which is why people move caches to the card and don't have that problem :)
[G1 Android Development] billc.cn:
but the map app does not use /cache. the latter is designed for non-transient temporary storage, not for big chunks of junk like the map.

Hi all,

I'm somewhat stuck...

I installed the Win7 RC successfully on my Shift. Everything works fine - except for 3G-modem.

It works fine in SnapVue and can be controlled via ShiftControl on Win7. It even reports signal strength and operator name.

But I can't use it for datatranfer in Win7. I can't see any NDIS-network like being used by internetsharing.

I'm using an outofthebox Snapvue without any hacks.

I even tried all tricks mentioned in the forum like disabling all USB-connections in WDMC.

Is there any trick I missed to get the modem working in Win7 without liberating SnapVue?

I wonder if I should reinstall Win7.

By the way: I can't install Extension Kit USBLanDriver because there isn't any hardware for it. But I guess it's for an external cable LAN-card, or? Can't be the rootcause for my issue, or?

Cheers,

D
[Shift Development] Caid444:
Hey, I'm not sure what's wrong with the 3g in win7 on your phone, but I do know that the drivers for the usblanextension (or whatever) will only be needed after you plug in your usb/lan dongle thingy that comes with the phone. It's the box with the three usb ports and an ethernet port. When you plug that in, windows 7 will install a generic usb hub driver. You'll have to go into your device manager and update the drivers by browsing to the directory where you placed the drivers.

After that, you'll have full use of the usb/lan extension.

Good hope!

Caid.

Hi,

Does anyone know if you can use one of these HTC Magics as a USB modem device? All our older HTC devices used Active Sync to enable the USB modem (3G) but this doesnt have it.

Also, we used Active Sync to connect the device to our exchange server for full push of all outlook items. Is this supported under Android? or is is just email that can be pushed?

Best wishes

Jon
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] georgefrs:
The HTC Magic does not support sharing an internet connection over USB. There are applications available for the G1 that can share the internet over wifi, however they require a rooted (modified) OS build and so they don't work on the Magic for the moment.

As for exchange, I think the support is limited to emails however I haven't actually tried it. Most of the devices sync tools are designed to work exclusively with Google servers (contacts, calendar, gmail).

alright guys.

i dont use mine with gps as i have the seperate bluetooth thing.

i got this bundle with my old vario2 ( top phone).

i hvanet tried copilot with the phones gps.

so when in the car i use the seperate bluetooth to not slow down the phone.

having said that i do also have google witht he gps on the phone and tbh i think it works pretty cool. i dont reallly see any lag. ( not sure what delay constitutes lag) it does get my position with in 10 metres.

so for car i use copilot and if ever not in car i would use google maps.

Ok, so i had some bogus account on youtube which i used to poke around with video on my g1 yesterday, but i wanted to change the name in something 'normal'.

So i deleted my account, made a new one and linked it to my google-account. All fine, but i can't change the username for youtube on my phone!

It tries to upload video's to a nonexisting account...

i removed all of youtube's data from within the app manager (which, to my believe, should reset the app to factory defaults) but still the old account is in there.

is there a workaround or anything i can do without doing a full wipe? my g1 is (of cours) rooted, so are there any config-files hidden somewhere that i can delete??

Hey guys,

i have a Vodafone VPx now and all has been great, however yesterday it reckoned the battery charged from 8% to 100% in 10 mins, i left it on the cradle over night, and now the device doesn't show any signs of life apart from a red charging indicator. I took the battery out and metered it, shows up at 3.72 Volts, so battery holds charge. What can i do to get the device to power again?

T.I.A

RJ
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] misi2096:
I'm not an expert but I would suggest to leave the device in the cradle and try to boot it when charging it. In this way you can decide whether it's a battery or some other malfunction. Maybe the internal backup battery needs to be replaced, but I don't know if it would let the battery indicator LED to blink...

I replaced my battery because it showed that it's fully charged but when uncradled the device won't connect to bluetooth devices or regularly drops the connection, it even resets itself although the indicator displaying full charge. Now everything is OK. You may consider buying a new battery if it's older than 2-3 years, but first test if that causes this behavior.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] jilaxzone:
hi,

actually i'm experiencing the same thing..

my BA if used to connect to wifi, not more than 5 minutes it will hang with the screen goes blank.. so is it because of my internal back up battery that needs to be replaced or my main battery that need to be replaced?

FYI, backdays before, i got notification that my internal battery runs dry..
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] speedy2009:
Ive just bought a BA off ebay and it came with 2 batts, but 1 of the batts keeps causing the BA to turn off evern if the batt is fully charged.. odd hey?
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] misi2096:
speedy2009, I think that one was the original battery bundled because it has no value any more so the seller sent it with the machine, all in all it's not a bad device for it's years.

jilaxzone, don't know how to test this, because sometimes the device gives false alarms, I would take it to a PDA shop and let them replace the internal battery as this is cheaper than the main battery.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] speedy2009:
Also Ive figgered out that if the backup battery is low, it gets charged up from the main battery.

Should everything be lost from the memory once the backup battery runs out? Cos I did try this morning, taking the main batt out and left the phone for about a hr. When I put the batt in, even tho windows said the backup batt was completely empty, it still had all my info in windows??
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] misi2096:
Hi, the backup battery is responsible for the time and date. The other functions of it are unknown to me. Fortunately the ROM storage is not lost when the battery drains completely :)
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] speedy2009:
If thats the case theres no real reason for a backup batt cos it only takes a few secs to alter time and date, like on a normal mobile phone.
